Save & splurge: riding boots

hello lovelies!

as riding boot season is QUICKLY coming upon us I thought it’d be a great time to show you how to save ~~a little~~ a LOT when it comes to these babies.

last season, I had purchased some boots from Charlotte Russe and I was IN LOVE with them! I would wear them all the time, except when it was literally a blizzard outside and in that case I would wear my trusty Uggs.

and so, naturally, they wore out. and being from Charlotte Russe, that time was cut in half. And so when I pulled them out of storage about a month ago, I wasn’t really surprised to remember that I had wore out the soles of them. and I mean WORE OUT. I put duck tape on them (zebra was all I had, okay?!) and tried to salvage them until I could find another pair I liked. And so, whenever I would get caught in the rain, my feet would be soaked and it was not fun.

so daily, I would go out in search of the perfect, cheap, but reliable riding boot. and because I had a specific design in mind, it was quite hard.

BUT ALAS. I DID IT.

I ran into Burlington Coat Factory and found the PERFECT BOOTS. FOR $30 NEVERTHELESS.

They’re not online, probably because they’re not at all the stores, but here’s a picture of my pair! I’m in LOVE with them and it’s so nice to have dry feet again!
